RECURRENT DATA RECEPTION IN IDLE/INACTIVE UE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18249077 titled 'RECURRENT DATA RECEPTION IN IDLE/INACTIVE UE
Simplified Explanation
The abstract of this patent application describes a method performed by a wireless device in idle/inactive mode. The method involves receiving assistance information from a network node, which includes a time-domain resource guarantee for a recurrent wakeup activity. Based on this assistance information, the wireless device determines whether to enter a power saving mode of operation between receiving control information and receiving data information associated with the recurrent wakeup activity.
- The wireless device receives assistance information from a network node.
- The assistance information includes a time-domain resource guarantee for a recurrent wakeup activity.
- The wireless device uses the assistance information to decide whether to enter a power saving mode.
- The decision is made based on whether the control information and data information associated with the recurrent wakeup activity can be received efficiently.
Potential applications of this technology:
- This technology can be applied in wireless devices operating in idle/inactive mode.
- It can be used in various wireless communication systems, such as cellular networks, Wi-Fi networks, and IoT networks.
- The method can help improve power efficiency and extend battery life in wireless devices.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Wireless devices in idle/inactive mode often consume unnecessary power while waiting for control and data information.
- It can be challenging to efficiently manage power consumption in wireless devices during recurrent wakeup activities.
- This technology addresses these issues by providing a method to determine whether to enter a power saving mode based on assistance information received from a network node.
Benefits of this technology:
- By entering a power saving mode during idle periods, wireless devices can conserve energy and extend battery life.
- The method allows wireless devices to optimize power consumption based on the specific requirements of recurrent wakeup activities.
- Improved power efficiency can lead to cost savings and a reduced environmental impact.
Original Abstract Submitted
According to some embodiments, a method performed by a wireless device operating in idle/inactive mode comprises receiving assistance information from a network node, wherein the assistance information comprises a time-domain resource guarantee for a recurrent wakeup activity; and based on the assistance information, determining whether to enter a power saving mode of operation between receiving control information associated with the recurrent wakeup activity and receiving data information associated with the recurrent wakeup activity.
